Macro and micro minerals: are frozen fruits a good source?

Abstract: Fruits are rich in minerals, which are essential for a wide variety of metabolic and physiologic processes in the human body. The use of frozen fruits has greatly spread in the last years not only in the preparation of juices, but also as raw material for yogurts, candies, cookies, cakes, ice creams, and children's food. However, up to now there is no data about the mineral profile of frozen fruits. This is the first database to quantify the levels of minerals in 23 samples of frozen fruits, including the most… Show more

“…However, contributions from the calcium and zinc RDOs do not reach 1.6% for either age group. These values are similar to those found by Spada et al (2010), who reported a contribution of 0.5% for calcium RDO and approximately 2.0% for manganese RDO from the consumption of a 100 g-portion of soursop pulp.…”

“…Low zinc contents were determined in all the frozen pulps analyzed (< 0.85 μg g -1 ). Spada et al (2010) did not find Cu, Zn and Mn in some of the frozen soursop pulps marketed in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The absence of these elements may be related to different growing conditions (Tiburski et al, 2011).…”

“…Indeed, a number of microminerals such as manganese, copper, and zinc are cofactors of many enzymes. As well, iron is a component of several enzymes in the muscle cells (Spada et al, 2010 ). Based on the above results, it is noted that Maazoun flesh is rich in minerals, particularly potassium, magnesium, and calcium, which could be salutary for human nutrition.…”
